Baracktoid 022

Obama writes of his recollections after moving to Indonesia: "On some nights, she [Stanley Ann] would hear him [Lolo] up after everyone else had gone to bed, wandering through the house with a bottle of imported whiskey, nursing his secrets." Obama also tells us that the last time he saw his stepfather was some ten years after he left Indonesia, "when my mother helped him travel to Los Angeles to treat a liver ailment that would kill him at the age of fifty-one." What Obama omits is that the liver disease that killed his stepfather was brought on by acute alcoholism, much as his father had committed what some would see as a car-assisted suicide.
